....who would you like to play Bacall??

They are all too old now, but in their in their primes any of these 3 would have been divine casting:

Charlotte Rampling, she possessed the same imposing, striking, handsome beauty, sophisticated looks, spare features and angular face and figure.

Kathleen Turner was a "softer", less severe version of Bacall. She was beautiful but not as arresting as Bacall, like a carbon copy that is more muted than the original. A "lesser" Bacall.

Linda Fiorentino (in the 90's) with her angular face and minimalist, flinty features. Intimidating and riveting. The quasi-ethnic version of Bacall with her discernible Mediterranean roots.
